GitHub Agentic Workflows is now in technical preview. It allows developers to build automations using coding agents in GitHub Actions to handle triage, documentation, code quality, and more. Developers describe the outcomes they want in plain Markdown, add it as an automated workflow to their repository, and it executes using a coding agent in GitHub Actions.
Trust-First AI, Built Into Your Browser
Agentic workflows are everywhere. Real trust is still rare.
Norton Neo is the world’s first AI-native browser designed from the ground up for safety, speed, and clarity. It brings AI directly into how you browse, search, and work without forcing you to prompt, manage, or babysit it.
Key Features:
Privacy and security are built into its DNA.
Tabs organize themselves intelligently.
A personal memory adapts to how you work over time.
This is zero-prompt productivity. AI that anticipates what you need next, so you can stay focused on doing real work instead of managing tools.
If agentic AI is the trend, Neo is the browser that makes it trustworthy.
Try Norton Neo and experience the future of browsing.
Programming languages are one of the most important tools in the DevOps arsenal. Choosing the right programming language or languages for your application is essential for succeeding at DevOps and achieving continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD).
Cursor now supports plugins, allowing agents to connect to external tools and learn new knowledge. Plugins bundle capabilities like MCP servers, skills, subagents, rules, and hooks that extend agents with custom functionality.
Welcome to the beginning of the Software Industrial Revolution. Just like the first Industrial Revolution, this will change the world in profound and unexpected ways. But unlike the first Industrial Revolution, this one won't take decades. It might not even take years.
A look at OpenClaw's cognitive core, Pi, a coding agent built by systematically removing everything its developer didn't personally need. OpenClaw didn’t build the runtime. It borrowed one even most of its adoptees are not familiar with, if they are even aware of its existence.

You can now generate 30-second music tracks from text prompts or photos and videos. Every clip gets a SynthID watermark, and Gemini can verify whether audio was AI-generated. Not a full production tool yet, but it’s another sign that generative audio is going mainstream fast.

The five-day AI Impact Summit, from February 16 to 20, is currently underway at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. Perhaps to showcase the effusiveness and sense of solidarity of the group, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the middle, all the CEOs held hands and raised them in the air in line. While all complied, to the amusement, fascination and shock of the internet, OpenAI’s Sam Altman and Anthropic’s Dario Amodei, refused to hold hands. Instead, they both just raised their fists in the air.
Perplexity is walking away from advertising. The reasoning? Once ads show up, users start second-guessing every answer. “We’re in the accuracy business,” one exec said. The company tested sponsored answers below responses, but now says ads are “misaligned with what users want.”
OpenAI hired Meta's longtime celebrity partnerships chief Charles Porch as its VP of global creative partnerships, according to Vanity Fair — a new role aimed at bridging the gap between the AI giant and a distrusting entertainment industry. Porch spent 15+ years as the go-to exec for getting A-listers onto IG, handling viral moments like Beyonce’s 2013 album drop and onboarding the Pope.
Microsoft's Project Silica is a working demonstration of a system that can read and write data into small slabs of glass with a density of over a Gigabit per cubic millimeter. The system can write up to 4.84TB in a single slab of glass of 12cm x 12cm x 0.2cm in about 150 hours. The main draws of the technology are that it takes no energy to preserve data and the data can be retrieved rapidly if needed.

AI Tutorial
How to Create Music Tracks with Gemini
Go to the Gemini website, click on "Tools" and select "Create Music"
Describe the song you want to create
For example: "Create a classic 80s rock song about a road trip across the desert with friends. Include electric guitar solos, driving drums, and lyrics about freedom and adventure."
While Google said that you can't mimic an artist outright, you can still add an artist's name to your prompt to have Gemini create a track in a similar style or mood.
Example: "Generate a gritty country song in the style of Johnny Cash with raw storytelling, a steady train-beat rhythm, and his signature deep voice."
You can also upload a photo or a video, and Gemini will create a song to match the mood of the media file.
Gemini will generate a 30-second track with lyrics or instrumental audio and leverage Nano Banana to create custom cover art. You can download and share the result.
